"I believe in supporting and empowering one another."
Elena became involved with Apollo Beach Women's Group, LLC, thanks to its founder, Solangel Bell. When Solangel moved her family back to Panama, she entrusted Elena with the group's leadership and ownership due to her dedication and experience in fostering women's connections in the community.
At 50, Elena launched her second career in real estate after spending 30 years in marketing, public relations, and sales. She is a bilingual Mortgage Loan Originator, NMLS#2709920, specializing in residential financing, including rehab loans, investment opportunities, non-qualifying (bank statement/no income) loans, and refinancing. With over 25 years of experience in business, marketing, and sales negotiations, and having sold over $25 million in real estate as a multi-million-dollar-producing Realtor, Elena leverages her extensive knowledge and experience to assist clients in financing their dream homes or investment properties.
A proud Cubanita Tampeña, Elena grew up in Tampa Bay. She is dedicated to her clients and community and enjoys promoting the area's rich history and culture. Deeply committed to community service, Elena serves on the board of The Tampa Club and chairs the Epicurean Club. Alongside her husband, Robert - an Army veteran and highly experienced Mortgage Loan Originator- she volunteers with Post 9/11 Veterans, helping those who have served our country. Elena and Robert are also co-chairs of the Friends of the Foundation for AdventHealth Riverview.
Elena was inspired to continue the mission after witnessing the growth of the network and its significant impact on its members. This mission was established in 2020 by Sol Bell, Jennifer Shaw, and Elena Jones, who worked together to turn their dream into reality.​
​​​​
Our mission is to create a sense of acceptance and belonging among women in our community. We aim to provide a safe and inclusive environment where women can connect, support one another, and feel valued. We believe that when women are seen, accepted, and appreciated, they can genuinely thrive together.
​
Because it is not ME, and it is not You... it is Us, and together, we can grow a Community Strong.
